Speaker 1 (00:01):
Signed to Talk Spour with Adrian Barrage. Hey guys, we're
on Derby Street. Yeah, this week, of course, the fifty
eighth edition. As you said, great man. And the score
at the moment is thirty two Eagles twenty five Dockers.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Yeah, which you're catching up.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
I've closed the gaps like seven. They've won the last
five the Dockers. There'll be fifty thousand fans there on
Saturday night. Starts about six to ten and off the stadium,
so it's going to be massive, most supporting West Coast
West Coast home game.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
I've been racking my brain as to.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
How the Eagles can actually win, but it seems like
it's going better.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Yeah, I just oh, you really do.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Expert, But I'm no expert. But I'll have it go
kick more than the other day.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
It feels like there's six straight win for the Eggs,
which is j Lo's six straight. Justin Longmire's sixth straight
win over his old mentors. So he used to work
with him as an assistant coach, so that must be
really get him too good. Yeah, it must be giving
him the tom to. They'll be feeling they'll be feeling good.
The crowd will be up and.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Yeah, win last week.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
And the only way, the only thing I think that
could come into is maybe complacency. Like if people like
myself start saying, oh, they're no chance, maybe the.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Dockers will start believing it.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
And because they are hot favorites, the experts are, they
win by at least five goals. And I'm just wondering
if it could rain long there's no rain?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Is there any right?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I'm afraid it is. And a top of thirty chance
of any rain thirty zero, top of thirty sunny wins
east nor Eastly fifteen don't give you any rain.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
It's not been giving up on any chance of rain.
Put a line through that.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
So the only thing could be is if they just
roll up and think they're sweet for you, if they've
been drinking their own bath work.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
You're saying all of this out loud, you know, yes,
Like if you see it's probably do you see a.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Couple of them walk onto the ground and they're wearing
the biggest set of headphones you've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
That's a bad sign.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
That means that they're ignoring the fans, trying not to
talk to anyone. I'm too focus, mate, Nickoff, Please if
you see that, or perhaps Beanie or a cap on backwards,
a new hairdoo.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
They're bad signs. They're indications.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
Deal with it.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
They're not thinking about the game, all right, But I
don't think that's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Five.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
He might have his headphones, but he's a different beast,
and so's the Derby. See it is a different beast.
It inspires superhuman efforts. Caleb Sarong's won two Glenn Dinning
Allen Medals, the best on ground. Josh Kennedy won. He
used to lift, He won three. Hayes will be won four. Yeah,
so he used to absolutely love Hi Juddy, the Big Pavlova,
Mickey Barlow. They were won three as well. So the
(02:51):
payback factor is strong with the Eagles though, because can
you remember last year when the Doc has beat them
by one hundred and one point and it nearly costs
Simo thought, oh geez, I'm sweet, I've got through the
year and he got melted by and then it was like,
hang on, do we want to keep sim a still?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Big board meetings, crisis meetings.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
So Simo survived the course, which was I thought is
a good decision and it was free as biggest ever
win over the West Coast Eagles. So these are the
things that you'll have to watch out for. They're bringing back,
bringing back Sean Darcy, can you believe. So they've got
Darcy and Jackson in the rack, which is frightening, and
then Jackson will push forward as well, so they need
(03:32):
someone to play on him. So down in their forward line,
they've got Amos, Jackson and Tracy, and the Eagles have
got McGovern and Barras and they're kind of one.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Short, one big guy short.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
So a little a young fellow by name of Hoff
will probably have to play on Amos, which is a
big call.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
A lot of experience though. Yeah, I've got a lot
of super players.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
I would have liked.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Veterans.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I would like to see one of those guys go forward,
Garv or Barrass, but it won't happen. Then you've got
the two old bulls in the middle, your man YOEI yeah,
up against NAT five.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
And he's on fire. He is doing well. He looks good,
but he looked really sore when he came in here.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
He looks half a foot off the ground.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I reckon.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
He's he's loving everything about every day at the moment.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Oh, that's good. That's really good. So that's a good sign.
Last week Waterman kicked six goals. But now he runs
into Alex Pearce. Introduce yourself to a bigger, faster, taller
version of hisself.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
You know what I mean? Like, we'll take five five
of the Yeah, well five would be very good.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well, the Dockers hold you to under ten goals, so
that they hold teams to under sixty four points. They're
the best defensive team in the game. So if the
Eagles can kick ten goals, that'll be actually a pretty
good effort. I'm thinking five or six, you know, seven
or eight single figures and can you win with that?
Jake Wadman, he did boot six last week. He ran
(04:57):
a massive fourteen point two kilometers, So in one game
run that collect my life. It took me three games
to run for two glimeters. What's going on with the
drive to the game? As Daniel Kerk As Daniel Kerr
once famous, he said, footy's great these days. You run
your guts out and then the game ends like it's.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Real good fun. They get paid a lot more than
we did.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
It's like doing the city to serve for people trying
to run you over everywhere. Have your turn everywhere you're turning.
So I was going to say to I wanted to
mention Harley read. I know that's predictable, isn't it that
we talked about Harley again and he.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Was great last week. We lived up didn't know me.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
As the old saying goes, if your Harley's broken, you
fix it. If you're broken, Harley fixes you. At least
that's the Harpy Davidson theme song. He's arrived twenty seven
touches last week and a goal, took home the Rising
Star nomination. And he likes to swagger. He's got the swagger,
and I love that about him. I used to swagger once.
(06:01):
Now I sort of limp limp and staggerer. It's an
unsteady that's gone from swagger to stagger.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I'm with you, I get it.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
But he has got and he talks about having the swagger,
and full credit to him.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
He's the Mick Jagger at all, right, Mick Jagger of
working of a song, he did you work on that?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
As long as he can swagger sagger on the weekend,
there's a song there to playing like Jagger anyway, he
stopped waiting for anyone to say it's okay to be himself.
He needs no permission And as Cousin said on the
front bar, Harley, he likes to run towards the fire. Yeah,
that was fantastic by Ben. Did you see Benny on
(06:46):
did looked amazing? You know in Melbourne it's just stunned them.
It rated unbelievably the front bar and people in Melbourne went, wow,
have a look at Ben Cousins. So we're used to
seeing him here one seven reading this, Yeah, ye, and
full credit to him. You know, he's he's mostly done it,
he said it. It's taken longer than he had hoped,
(07:06):
but he's mostly done it. To get back to where
he was seven played a bit of a role. His
family's played a massive, massive role.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
I think it's taken as long as it had to.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
As you know, as it turns out, that's what we've
learned and that's what he should probably remember.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
You know, he's giving hope to people everywhere.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
I know there's a little bit of sort of backlash,
but you know, in terms of like the other day,
this is no boardust I was in the vet and
a lady came up to me and she said, oh,
barah Bara, you do something with Ben, don't you. And
she grabbed a piece of paper and she said, she said,
I want to write a note. I want to write
a letter to Ben. Can you please take this? He goes,
dear Ben, and she's crying and there's tears rolling down
(07:43):
her eyes. She goes, my son's been touched by this
horrible scourge. I'm going to write him a letter and
say how much he's given me hope that one day
my son might come out of this problem like it
was quite remarkable. I know this is in a footy
segment and this isn't a sporting thing, but that's what
he says. Yeah, And then it leads to do we
(08:04):
add him into the Hall of Fame?
Speaker 4 (08:06):
Of course we do.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
I'm sick of this debate even of course it should
be he should be there on his far and that
it probably that's a yes from me. Probably happens next year,
but yes, he should be in there on his football.
We had a game last night.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
We did, actually, and it was a very bad game
for the sin Kilda footy club.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
So Rossline.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Now people starting to doubt ross Lyne whether it was
a good decision to send him there. Memories at Freeman
or sid Well got him to a Grand Final. Then
they had to sack him and they let the CEO
go as well, by the way, at the same time,
and so he went into the media. And now he's
bobbed up again at Sint Kilda.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
Suddenly. It's funny how it turns so quickly.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
The Bulldogs thrashed them last night and now Ross he's
not as smart as he used to be. I'm sick
of all those sayings he uses and the way he talks.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
You don't get a lot of grace.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Now, you don't know a lot of It's very fickle,
very The Saints have been waiting since nineteen sixty six
in your Premiership, I know, so they've been a little
bit patient.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
And they're loyal. They're loyal man.
